Our Man in Europe/dave delacroix/ "Sentimental Journey."


(dedicato: Alessandra D.)


...GONNA TAKE a sentimental journey, oceans apart, fractured by heart, the grateful unfaithful, somewhere, lost in that song nobody ever wrote, only that sentimental moment...on the road?

GAZ, food, MOTEL, any which way? Sometimes, don't ya know, the madding crowd brings U down?

GONNA TAKE a sentimental journey. Maybe a Journey, for U and Me? No need to pack, put away your "Face'in", I'll leave my guitar to that kid we met...down on the Street, and both U and I will get BUSTED for our Dancing feet!
YO! Busted! And in Heaven we'll meet.... (....Am gonna take a sentimental journey)

I'm gonna take a sentimental journey, oceans apart, fractured in heart, the grateful-unfaithful, somewhere, soooo LOST in that song nobody ever wrote, only that sentimental moment...on the road...and U and Me.

"And the Devil in My loins
which tells me Every thing

gnawing away...at my Soul
that I cannot begin,
to USURP

that I am?
So how can  I KNOW?

I live in Kansas. A flowered skirt.
At the Hair Salon, folks

someday, the Optician
who
prescribed new lenses?
In the Land of the BLIND:

Should I go to Missouri!?


He's a PROBLEM

And TELL those KIDS:
"QUIT DO'IN DAT!!!"
Less I forget
the MeAnING OF Life.....
Less I forget the meaning of Life.?

Our Man in Europe/dave delacroix/ "U can Still kill Us."


(Letter from a Concentration Kamp.)


...U can kill US, U ghosts, U PAST, revisited, old sins cast long shadows, the GUILTY, by device, tangent spiritual, nice, huddle in the dark....the dark CORNERS... afraid of the dark, afraid of the light, the Old GUARD, the Day.
TO this  Day, politico, SOME scent, A PASSION, SENILE...Chanel No. 5.

U can kill your Sister, your Brother, your Mother. Sorry MOM. Ya gotta go first. Save da Kids, righteous, NO doubt.  My BRO wasn-t much good.  The OVENS got an hungry look. Sista, babee, I cant SAVE U, this SIDE of today and/or where Tomorrow-s gonna be; catch a fire, no expletives, just burn baby...see ya on the OTHER side; JUST WHO decides who lives and dies that await our retribution, and just awaits our retribution, as we whistle as we work. And as we whistle as we work.

...U can KILL Us, U ghosts, U Past revisited, old sins cast long shadows, the Guilty, by device, tangent spiritual, nice, huddle in the dark...the DARK, the dark corners, the hellish secrets NO MAN should know, in vain, searching for the light.

Our Man in Europe/dave delacroix/ "La Luna." (The Moon)


...LA LUNA, tide, this side of Paradise;
la Luna, tide, this side of Paradise...

The Sky is Upside down,
your Feet in the air
gripping, with your hands
the THINGS not there;
the Sea is in your MOUTH
and NO songs sing  YO  sing,
just how U got there:
no magic ring...

La Luna, tide, this side of Paradise;
la Luna, tide, this side of Paradise...

The COMET in your eyes,
the sun in shadow,
the past eclipsed,
zips by U: steals your tomorrow!
And NO words echo,
no Kaddish, no Epitaph, no NUTTIN-
And Spinsters WAIL,
sing of how U never lived;
no magic Ring!

La Luna, tide, this side of Paradise;
la Luna, tide, this side of Paradise.

Our an in Europe/dave delacroix/ "The Brides of July."

Our Man in Europe/dave delacroix/ "The Brides of July."

SWEETWATER-WELL; a succubus of longing, butterflies. There's ONLY Primrose, no doubt, Carnations? Only the scent of Sage, Hyacinth or that latest Canzone, dispelling Un-due caution like a non-venomous bee sting?

The Brides of July gather, Un-towards their Paramours, insistent, confident and kissing (Lanvin No. 5?) YOUR Man, a Warrior, a Don Quixote? A Steely-Dan?
Geese SWOON in chorus, Ducks and Drakes for your eternal Tomorrows?

Do I ENVY these Brides of July, now, so full of life's purpose? Tonight? Certainly. And yet; to wish upon a Star?...
